The influence of these phenomena to the power-electronics circuit performance under high applied voltage is discussed using a 27.1 MHz class-E amplifier, which can be one of an industrial application candidate. It has been found that the optimized field plate structure minimizes the increase of conduction loss caused by the current collapse phenomena and thus improves the power efficiency of the circuit. The minimized device achieved the output power of 13.8 W and the power efficiency of 89.6 % for the demonstrated circuit even with the applied drain voltage of 330 V and the switching frequency of 27.1 MHz.

This paper presents, for the first time, a comprehensive analysis of chip cooling for various nanometer scale bulk-CMOS and silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technologies. Unlike all previous work, our analysis employs a holistic approach (combines device, circuit and system level considerations) and also takes various electrothermal couplings between power dissipation, operating frequency and die temperature into account. While cooling always gives performance gain at the device or circuit level, it is shown that system level power defines a temperature limit beyond which cooling gives diminishing returns and the associated cost may be prohibitive. A scaling analysis of this temperature limit is also presented. Furthermore, it is shown that on-chip thermal gradients cannot be mitigated by global chip cooling and that localized cooling can be more effective in removing hot-spots","PeriodicalId":13071,"journal":{"name":"IEEE InternationalElectron Devices Meeting, 2005.
